Email him the thread URL... you're already in contact with him, so it'll look less suspicious than someone else suddenly jumping in.

Also, you might know of, or might be able to check to see if anything else is happening in Illinois when he's due to be there... there might be an annual big-gay wrestlefest or something that he's attending.

That might clear up any debate as to motive. Although, I kinda agree with Locu5... there does seem to be a homo-erotic undercurrent... and when I say undercurrent, I mean he's slightly obvious like Hitler was slightly anti-semetic.

Where there is only a choice between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence.

I'm 5'-7" tall and weigh 168 lbs. I live in Manchester - England but I travel frequently and especially to the United States, Canada, Mexico as well as many other places. I have to stress that I am neither trained nor professional at any combat sport - I simply fight/grapple/wrestle with friends or anyone who challenges or wishes to train/spar with me. Submission wrestling is the style where two guys wrestle to get each other in holds/moves so that their opponent can't escape or cannot take any further pain from the hold that is being applied. Usually the matches/spars are up to one hour duration – sometimes longer! The winner being the guy at the end of the duration who has gained the most submissions or tap outs. Well, now that you know what to expect are you interested?, do you accept my challenge?, if so, please get back to me as soon as you can with your age, weight and height, let me know where you are, how many times you've wrestled this style, won and lost, if at all and anything else that you like to let me know.
